It was over three years ago that Lhasa de Sela died of cancer at the age of 37. My post.
I have been thinking a lot about Lhasa recently; the Idle No More movement as well as the season's reminder of family members and friends who died in December and January stir these memories.
In late November, I viewed the AGO exhibition Frida and Diego with my daughter.
It was an intense and powerful learning experience; if you're able to see it before it closes on January 20th, do go!
Frida's shorn hair self-portrait is echoed in Lhasa's performance here.

What a lovely remembrance ...
How powerful are the links you provide
so one like me could see/hear such vibrance ..
Is anything Wrong.. is anything Right
and How will we Know ?
Made me feel .. made me think ..
but that's what artists do for me
Thanks for showing me a Canadian artist
and she's a precious one ..
We need them so badly ...
Did you check out the music videos and other resources about Lhasa, on the post I did two years ago?
I think you'll like them too, as well as the interview she gave to our blogging friend brebis noire.
Of course I did .... !
